Hi Lacy!

I'm guessing you mean 2.36 x 10^5.

Here's a hint, 10^e is essentially how many zeros added behind the 1 e many times. Say for instance, if our exponent (e) is 1 the answer would be 10, as there is only one zero. For this case, it's 10^5, thus there will be 5 zeros. 100,000. So 2.36 x 100,000.

Now, all you must do is move the decimal point of 2.36 by how many zeros you see.

2.36 -> 23.6 (1) -> 236. (2) -> 2360. (3) -> 23600. (4) -> 236000 (5).

Therefore the answer, in standard form, is 236,000

A rocket is launched from a tower. The height of the rocket, y in feet, is related to the time after launch, x in seconds, by th

Bond [772]

Answer:

The time that the rocket will hit the ground will be:

x = 17.40 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

$f\left(x\right)\:=-16x^2+272x+110$

Here:

x represents the time in seconds

y represents the height of the rocket

We know that when the rocket will hit the ground, the height will get y = 0

i.e.

$0\:=-16x^2+272x+110$

solving for x to determine the time that the rocket takes when it will hit the ground.

so

$-16x^2+272x+110=0$

subtract 110 from both sides

$-16x^2+272x+110-110=0-110$

$-16x^2+272x=-110$

Divide both sides by -16

$\frac{-16x^2+272x}{-16}=\frac{-110}{-16}$

$x^2-17x=\frac{55}{8}$

$\mathrm{Add\:}\left(-\frac{17}{2}\right)^2\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}$

$x^2-17x+\left(-\frac{17}{2}\right)^2=\frac{55}{8}+\left(-\frac{17}{2}\right)^2$

$x^2-17x+\left(-\frac{17}{2}\right)^2=\frac{633}{8}$

$\left(x-\frac{17}{2}\right)^2=\frac{633}{8}$

$\mathrm{For\:}f^2\left(x\right)=a\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}f\left(x\right)=\sqrt{a},\:-\sqrt{a}$

solving

$x-\frac{17}{2}=\sqrt{\frac{633}{8}}$

$x=\frac{\sqrt{1266}}{4}+\frac{17}{2}$

x = 17.40 seconds

also solving

$x-\frac{17}{2}=-\sqrt{\frac{633}{8}}$

$x=-\frac{\sqrt{1266}}{4}+\frac{17}{2}$

x = -0.40 seconds

As time can not be negative.

Thus, the value of x = 17.40 seconds

Therefore, the time that the rocket will hit the ground will be:

x = 17.40 seconds

Light travels 300,000 km/s. The planet Mars is about 228,000,000 km from the sun. How would you find out how many minutes it tak

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

12.67 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Time taken is given by distance divided by speed

Given distance of 228, 000, 000 km and speed of light as 300, 000 km/s then time will be

Time=228, 000, 000/300, 000=760 seconds

Conversion

60 seconds make up 1 minute

760 seconds will be 760/60

Time=760/60=12.666666666666

Rounded off, this is 12.67 minutes
